Aging and the pulmonary system - Answer The pulmonary system loses elastic recoil, chest wall stiffens and an increase in flow resistance. Alveolar wall tissue decreases with age leaving less surface area for gas exchange. Compliance decreases bc joints become stiffer and ribs become ossified. Respiratory endurance decreases 20% by age 70 which leads to decreased vital capacity, increase residual volume and decreased ventilation perfusion ratio. Also have a decrease compensatory response. ...
